Teaching Manuals

After a great deal of time and effort the new revised 300 page 2014 Teachers Manual Volume I is ready for sale.

The first portion includes dance information important for all dancers—line, partner, and couples. The rest of the book will
interest couple dancers with School Figures Level One and Level Two.

There is a brief history of social dance, floor alignment illustrations, partner alignment and technique, lead and follow suggestions,
dance position illustrations, port de bras illustrations, teaching hints for couples, and many more interesting tips
and suggestions for better dancing and teaching.

The NEW REVISED Terminology Booklet is filled with
MANY MORE of the most used terms plus four Appendix pages. NTA
volunteers have worked hard to research and standardize proper dance
terms for dances. While we respect a choreographers dance description
sheets as they have prepared them, we also strive to explain to our
students the proper names as well as the proper technique to these dance
moves.

This Booklet will assist you in explaining both the proper
names and the maybe more popular name. It doesn’t cover every term we know
but it includes a great amount of variety.
